Long-term benefits to the Philadelphia Art Museum and community
The Philadelphia Museum of Art (PMA) serves as the cultural hub in a city known for its rich history of innovation and civic-minded population. More than a home for great treasures, the museum helps drive the city’s local economy and serves as a vital educational resource to over 700,000 visitors each year. When Mayor Jim Kenney committed to reducing Philadelphia’s carbon emissions by 80% by 2050, starting with the enormous and historic PMA campus was a natural choice as the museum was among the largest energy users within the city.
To bring the historic building (which was built in 1928) into the modern era and maintain its status as a center of the city’s artistic and cultural endeavors, the city contracted Johnson Controls for a $11.3 million sustainable infrastructure project funded under an energy savings performance contract.
